Re: [Talk-GB] Odd edits around the A460 in the W Midlands
Hi Andy The A460 is very definitely not a motorway. The change is wrong and needs to be reverted. As a new Shropshire resident, I regularly travel this way, as our familes are still in Leicestershire. I can correct this from knowledge easily and can run a new GPS trace when I go that way at the weekend. Will give me an excuse to look at the MGs. I have come across both users in the past, the change to a motorway looks like vandalism to me. Have you contacted the user? In the past I have come across him using NPE maps to tag long since disappeared railway stations on the Wales/Shropshire border, on a long since closed railway. I did email the other user about adding bicycle=no to motorways, and got the following reply: On 2012-09-21 19:31:49 UTC trig222 wrote: I have spotted that you have been tagging motorways as bicycle=no. Is there any reason you are doing this? It is implied by the highway being a motorway. Because I want to. My edits are not vandalism, they are correct and so why I am doing them is not really germane now is it? His use of words like germane (I had to google it), did not impress me. But probably harmless.

Shall I repair this straight away, or does the whole changeset need reverting (which I don't think I should do)?

[Talk-GB] Odd edits around the A460 in the W Midlands
Does anyone know if the A460 is now subject to motorway regulations as it passes over the M6 and M6 Toll? http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.66199&lon=-2.06171&zoom=16&layers=M I'm guessing that it doesn't, and that the two most recent changes here (to motorway_link and adding bicycle=no) are incorrect. The changesets involved are 13371510 and 13327657. 13371510 seems to be mechanically adding "bicycle = no" to motorway links. 13327657 seems to be part of a problematic series of edits which includes some railway deletions, which someone's already repaired as part of changeset 13402098. I mention it here because if there is a bucket-and-shovel job to be done, it's best done by someone familiar with the area Cheers, Andy ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
